A key design objective of modern residential, commercial and industrial facilities is to incorporate a concern for energy consumption, as well as occupant comfort and safety. A healthier, more productive and more attractive environment depends in large part on well-designed and properly-insulated HVAC duct systems, which carry air to conditioned spaces inhabited by people,

The advent of enhanced Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) has influenced engineers to 1) keep interior ducts free of foreign materials that bring fibers into the air stream, absorb moisture, or support mold growth, and 2) address sound reduction mechanically through deflection and

other methods. However, not using interior insulation results in increased transferred noise, energy loss, and higher cost solutions. Using a fiber-free, closed cell elastomeric liner provides a solution for all of these issues.

NOISE REDUCTIONEffective noise reduction in ducts requires an integrated strategy of good mechanical layout, vibration isolation and insulation with noise absorbing properties. Acoustic performance can be categorized into two functions: noise reduction (absorption) and sound barrier. For duct lining applications, the primary acoustical goal of the insulation is to achieve noise reduction through the absorption of sound waves and the subsequent conversion of sound energy into heat. The insulation absorbs noise from the air handler (fan) and room, and prevents it from traveling down the duct and exiting at the vent openings.

Noise reduction, quantified by the Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC), measures the percentage of sound absorption in a reverberation room by

determining noise decay rate. K-FLEX Duct® Liner Gray outperforms fibrous, and is comparable to semi-closed cell elastomeric, in absorbing noise at low frequencies associated with equipment rumble (125 - 500 Hz), which is the #1 target for acoustical treatment. Noise from higher frequencies, i.e. high pitched screeching, is the result of a mechanical problem downstream and is not usually a consideration.

Sound barriers, quantified by the Sound Transmission Loss (STL), reduce the amount of noise that pass through an area being by reflecting the sound waves back to its source. STL values are defined as the difference in decibels (dB) between the average sound pressure levels in the source and receiving rooms before and after acoustic treatment

which are then used to determine the Sound Transmission Class (STC) of the product. Sound barrier properties are generally related to the mass of the material in that the higher the mass, the higher (better) the STC value. In the case of metal air ducts, the metal duct itself is a good barrier material and the insulation is not a major contributor as a sound barrier. When STC values are given for duct lining materials, they are often tested as a composite (insulation and metal together) as this provides a more accurate measure of the STL of the application and if the insulation were tested by itself, it would not provide a very high value. It should be noted however, that insulation, when adhered to the duct will reduce noise created by vibration from the duct.

ENERGY CONSERVATIONThermal insulation is commonly used to reduce energy consumption of HVAC systems and equipment. If improper insulation is used, potential threats include heat loss through duct walls and moisture intrusion into the interior structure of the insulation. Since water is a very good conductor, the capability of an insulation material to slow water vapor from penetrating into its interior

SMACNA allows 5% moisture intrusion for fiberglass liner, BUT: For every 1% moisture gain, the insulation effectiveness drops 7.5%. As indicated below, if the wvt of the insulation is less than 0.10 perm-in, there will be minimal long-term effects on the k-value.

IAQ CONTROL MOLD RESISTANCE / LOW VOC / NON-FIBROUSFor an insulation material to defend against indoor air quality (IAQ) problems, it must resist condensation and moisture intrusion that can lead to mold, and ensure that the air passing over it does not contain fibers or dust. In ductwork that functions using conditioned air, the formation of condensation on the surface of the insulating material, within it, or on the outside of the metal is a negative factor.

Condensation forms as a result of the direct contact of warm humid air with a cold surface if the temperature of the surface is lower than the Dew Point of the humid air. The surface temperature of a duct and of the insulation depends on the application conditions and the R-value of the insulation material. If the insulation material is vapor permeable, moisture can move inside the insulation to reach areas where the temperature is

low enough to have condensation, even if the surface temperature of the insulation is high enough to prevent surface condensation. An insulation material with low wvt would prevent this situation from occuring.

K-FLEX Duct® Liner Gray has tested as being mold resistant to ASTM G 21 standards. This is a result of a closed cell structure that inherently resists moisture and wicking, an added anti-microbial agent, a smooth surface skin that resists dirt accumulation, and a fiber-free composition that makes it non-particulating and non-eroding. K-FLEX Duct® Liner Gray is GREENGUARD® certified as a low VOC material, meeting the requirements for the “Children & Schools” and “Indoor Air Quality” classifications.

In contrast, fibrous or open cell materials rely on a concentrated moisture vapor barrier (foil jacket or surface-applied coating). If the barrier is damaged (even a pinhole) or the edges are not properly sealed, they are susceptible to moisture intrusion and subsequent mold growth. Once moisture penetrates, it can wick and involve large areas in the mold growth process. The EPA & NAIMA recommend the immediate removal of wet fiberglass to prevent mold, which means additional costs.

A study published in the April 2004 issue of ASHRAE Journal showed that an inspection of 150 office buildings with fiberglass duct liner revealed that 92% of them had fungal growth. Semi-closed cell elastomeric insulation would also be susceptible to moisture intrusion. Often times, the insulation can have moisture issues before the building is enclosed or commissioned.
